Kenyon Martin, Blake Griffin, Amar’e, Aaron Gordon maybe…but I don’t see AD…

this Youngblood respecting his elders, responding with “Yes Ma’am” and “Yes Sir”. Obi’s parents should be proud raising a respectful talented young man. Very rare. Rooting for his success in the draft!

Best player in the draft as soon be the number one player in NBA guaranteed, I said this early in the year first time seeing this guy look like Magic Johnson Jordan and Zion put together with a minimal amount of Damon stodimire besides the stature

My comparison to him was AD because he can shoot and be effective in the paint

Amare is a great comparison and would be the PERFECT compliment to Trae Young if he were to go to Atlanta.

He shouldn’t watch AD. Anthony Davis is soft and not ready for the big stage

If I’m a prospect, I’m avoiding Cleveland, Detroit, and NYK any way possible.
